Can anyone tell me which Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, etc.)is
compatible with XP Home? Also, where I can learn and ask questions about
Office Outlook? Thank you!

More info: I am currently using Office 2003 and Word 2003 is too unstable.
I am currently writing a book in Word and have found many other authors of
one degree or another having the same trouble with Word. Once you get up
over 100 pages, it becomes unstable and deletes or looses some of the
content. Therefore, I was wondering which Office Suite works best or better
with XP Home that will provide a better writing environment than is currently
provided in Office (Word) 2003.

By the way, your next to the last link doesn't work. Thank you just the same!

You may want to ask in one of the Office ng's (unfortunately they appear to be
down at the moment):

Not a solution to the instabilty problem but have you considered writing the
book in chapters where each chapter is a different file? Then if some thing
does go wrong you only loose the chapter you are working on not the whole
book.
